Line Goes Up - The Problem with NFTs was widely praised despite and/or because of its over 2 hour length. I think if the video has a lot to say and says it well, who's to say how much time it should be worth?
First time hearing of that video. Is the name drop of that title meant to indicate it was a viral hit or something? Quantities of videos on YouTube are endless and constantly being churned out, so part of why people want some strong selling point when it comes to topics many others have covered and keep covering. Especially during phases when every youtuber seems to be covering the topic to take advantage of the algorithm.
I should have provided a link, my bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ_xWvX1n9g
Thanks for the link. Yeah, just length alone isn't a good reason to dismiss a video since if something is interesting I'll watch it like that NFT video.
More just when it comes to the coverage around LTT it is at the end of the day just some YouTube channel being called out and the PR response getting whole flood of talking heads jumping on the bandwagon. It's one of the topics now that feels so run to the ground for what is gossip or opinion pieces that until there's either more concrete new evidence from within the organization or new content from LTT to talk about it's not the most engaging topic for a long exposé with there being no new revelation to be attention grabbing.
Which is the main reason why for at least just LTT videos the duration was a turn off in the current offerings of LTT focused videos with it being so over saturated. Of course, if it had Linus or anyone from LTT being invited to interviewed then yeah that'd be interesting.
